== Description ==
{{Training Subject/Description}}

SAR Basics (also called SAR Fundamentals) is the introductory course that covers all the
basic material that a SAR worker needs to know. It includes both
classroom and outdoor exercises. A provincially recognized, SAR
Alberta certificate is issued for satisfactory completion of the
course.

Prerequisites/Corequisites:
* {{link|Training/ICS 100}}
* {{link|Training/Standard First Aid}} or higher

== Offered To ==

All interested persons - search and rescue workers, government
workers, and members of the public.

It is now required by Pincher Creek Search and Rescue that
members obtain their SAR Fundamentals certification as soon as
possible after joining the group. Courses are available at certain
times of the year through our group or other SAR groups.

To maintain your certification you are required to be a
participant in at least two (2) mock or real searches within a
twelve (12) month period. We have mock searches as the training
component of regular meetings a few times a year. This is done to
ensure that members have the opportunity to remain certified in the
event we have a substantial lack of real searches.

The status of "Emergency" applies to all currently certified
members and they are the first to be called upon for a search. If
your certification lapses you fall into the status of "Resource"
which means you will be among the last to be called for a search
and your involvement may be limited.

Members are strongly encouraged to maintain their SAR
Fundamentals certification.
